My Take on the Product
I was lucky enough to try out this new product recently. I was sent the two varieties that you see above and I was excited to try both. With the busy schedule that we have in our home having something that is easy to make that has great flavor too is something that we always are looking for. This product was easy enough to make. It is essentially a coat and bake type of item, and then the sauces that come with it make it unique and crunchy. We tried both of these and were impressed with the flavor and the easy of creating. Both packs make quite a bit and whether you do chicken strips of chicken breasts (we tried it both ways) I found that the flavor was just as good either way. If you are looking for something that is easy and will have your own kids asking for more, look no further than these great kits, you will not be disappointed!
